Fun Fall Scavenger Hunt (with printable!)

Fall is my favorite season during the year and my kids really love it too. The weather is cooler and the leaves are turning all the pretty colors. We get to sip our favorite drink - hot cocoa. And there is almost always lots of pretty fall decorations up around our neighborhood and community.

My kids love doing nature scavenger hunts so this year I created this fun Fall themed scavenger hunt with things kids might find during the Fall season. I included some of our favorite fall finds from apples to pumpkins a leaf pile and even someone's hot drink! Maybe it's hot cocoa or fresh apple cider or if it's an adult, it could even be cup of coffee!

I recently took the kids to the local pumpkin patch and farm where we did some fun Fall activities with friends. At the end of the outing we took a tractor ride out to the fields to pick our own pumpkins for our Fall display! The kids always love doing family things like that. This Fall Scavenger Hunt is perfect for a pumpkin patch trip.

Or maybe you have an apple orchard nearby. Apple picking is another fun activity that we like to do as a family. Check off the apples in your Fall scavenger hunt and then go home and have fun in the kitchen baking some apple pies and other goodies!

There are so many great Fall things to enjoy. Even just a Fall nature walk to search for animals and different types of plants and colorful leaves is something that is calming and fun for the whole family! It helps kids be in the moment and pay attention to the beautiful things that are all around them.
